The OnePlus 8 Pro’s crazy secret camera feature went viral a few days ago when several users discovered that you can use a color filter to see through some materials, including plastic and textiles. Several OnePlus 8 Pro users tried the trick, posting the results on social media. This X-ray vision mode is unique to the new OnePlus phone and seems to be a harmless gimmick. You can’t actually see through anything that matters. But it’s easy to understand why the feature could be upsetting to some people, and the Chinese smartphone maker is taking a cautious approach to the unexpected problem. The color filter will be removed via a software update.
